‘Back to the Fuchsia’ by T. S. Idiot

£9.99

Although he is best known for his high-energy, humour-laced performances seen at comedy nights, punk gigs and poetry shows across the UK, this collection shows a more intimate side of T.S. IDIOT. Written between 2019-2022, these poems document a fictional 12-hour window as the poet walks through 3 years’ worth of grief for lost friends, broken relationships, mental breakdowns—and ultimately, the scraps of love, resilience and belonging found along the way that might just help us get through this.
